A Lady of High Regard is now available on Kindle, but not free, while it is still free elsewhere - feel free to bombard Amazon with lower price reports, as that might get the price lowered before the promotion is over.
Today's Kindle Deal of the Day is The Chicken Soup Series, with titles priced from 99 cents to $1.99! That's right, 172 books in the series are on sale, today only! It's not the entire series, but appears to be a bit over half and there are definitely some good ones to choose from in the sale.There are simply too many books in the series to list them all (or even a representative sampling), with books for women, couples, teens, retirees, teachers, writers, baseball fans, pet lovers, cat lovers, dog lovers, dog & cat lovers, etc. There is even the Chicken Soup for the Soul Cookbook, no recipes of which have been adjusted to make them "nutritionally correct" and Chicken Soup for the Soul Recipes for Busy Moms, which features Mr. Food, whose recipes often fit entirely into a short television segment as a part of the local news. Mr. Food recently gave a demonstration at the Gluten Free Fair here; although the recipes in this book are not necessarily gluten free, many are easily converted, by substituting gluten free pasta, for instance.
